MEMS (sensors)

Hi i have a problem with a sensor vl53l0x on the board b-l475e-iot01a. In particular when i use the VL53L0X_PROXIMITY_GetDistance() in a task with HAL_Delay() it work but when i use the osDelay it work only for a repetition of the for(;;).

If i use 2 task, and in first task put the VL53L0X_PROXIMITY_GetDistance() with osDelay, second task never start. I tried to replace osDelay() with other function for context switch but i have same problem.

The LIS3MDL magnetic data are 16bit left-justified. I deserialised the the Data to a int-16 value. How can I interprete the "left-justified" remark? Do I have to shift the Answer?

Local Communication by using multiple VL53L1x

Hi, I plan to use a VL53L1x sensor pair to implement a very low-bandwith local communication as a side duty of ranging. For this purpose I need to be able to precisely control laser emission of VCSEL. Is is possible to timing VCSEL laser emission by...

VL53L1X Dust and Waterproof Protective Material

Is there a way to use the VL53L1X sensor to be dust and water resistant? I watched the Calibration-Free Dirty Environment Cover Glass Solution video and does this protective glass layer also provide water resistance?

VL53L1X SPAD orientation to package

Please direct me to the document that specifies the orientation of the SPAD to the package. My application requires a short but wide FOV.

Possible to connect VL53L1X to sensor hub on LSM6DSL or LSM6DSR?

The LSM6DSL, LSM6DSR have a sensor hub and I'd like to connect the VL53L1X Time of flight sensor to the sensor hub and have the IMU automatically read information from the VL53L1X.From reading the sensor hub documentation in the datasheets as well as...

Have there been any optical interface material compatibility tests for the VL53L1X?

We wish to use the sensor in a freezer behind a protective plastic cover. We expect some frost and dirt to be an issue on the outside of the glass. We are considering an optically clear adhesive between the glass and the VL53L1X to prevent frost and ...

Will the VL53L0X measure the distance to the surface of clear water in a container if pointed down into the water perpendicular to water surface?

Noise comparison of three accelerometers, LSM303C, LSM6DS3, LSM6DSL

I have three accelerometers and the circuit is designed according to the datasheet. I have collected the data of three kinds of accelerometers with the vibration test-bed. The sampling frequency of the accelerometers is all set to 800 Hz, placed hori...

How to convert the LSM303AGR Accelerometer temperature from the 2 registers to Celsius Degrees

Hi, I am developing a device that uses the accelerometer/magnetometer LSM303AGR.The problem is that datasheet doesn´t comment about temperature sensibility (For example: Sensitivity = 16 LSB/°C in lis2dtw12)Could anyone give me an equation to convert...
